Question What do you want to see made? Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       IP Information Go to the top of this page

As I'm the only actve modeler on the project atm, and am running out of 'fresh' ideas to model from, I thought it might be best to ask the rest of you what you would like to see in the mod or that we might need in terms of new models (statics only).

So what do you want? :D

I would very much like several buildings for Orsinium, please. I will upload concepts for these (or similar photos), tomorrow.

The most important, though, would be the Fortress, which Braggi posted a series of TES2 screenshots from every angle under this thread:
Concept Art Needed - Tthe Orc City of Orsinium

On a related note, did you finish the rocks and dung pile for Ashpit in the end? I found some nicely retextured ash golems that would fit right in there.

I can make, and will finish all of those bits tomorrow. The interior of the Fortress can just use a retex of another stock set, and I probably won't look to far into the Daggerfall version, though I hope to capture some of the same 'feeling', though keep in mind Orsinuim has since entered a time of higher economic power since Daggerfall, and the Fortress would have been revamped since anyway.

I'll also upload some pics of the Ashpit stuff I made, and I think I may have already mentioned it in another thread, but I don't think those Ash Golems were of the highest quality (nor looked very oringinal) -we can do better.

I would like to see those concepts ASAP! While Braggi and Gyssar are away, doesn't mean us Modders can't play and do lots of work :)

I agree that the fortress wouldn't have the same appearance now - but those photos are still useful for inspiration.

I was always planning on the fortress having been substantially reworked (its in the city plan for Orsinium) - perhaps to make it more of a palace rather than a defensive structure, since the city is now surrounded by two sets of curtain walls, so Gortwog can afford to splash out a little on more spacious quarters (and show off his new-found wealth and power).

What I think we should definitely keep from the original is the very asymmetrical architecture. It makes it look radically different to anything else we've got planned for HR.

I will do my best to send those concepts tomorrow (it will be difficult to do it tonight).

Well, for Orsinium, I found a nice concept someone drew on deviantART, which is here.

I've been given the task of finding stuff for Northpoint, so here's all that I have so far.

I think the lighthouse should definitely go in.

Didn't Unique Landscapes already make a waterwheel like the one in the other picture?

By the way, TOYB, what happened with that Torval set you were making for Elsweyr in the end?

It's still in the works, I just don't have the enthusiasm needed to finish it right now.

Fair enough. I just saw the video - what you did so far looks excellent.

Now, back to the topic!

Updaties, I've just made a Lampost like the ones in the picture of the plaza. Needs texturing and colision, but that's really simple for this model. Will post a pic when I've done other stuff aswell :)

So far, all I know of that I will need is the 'Bliss style Furniture' from SI, minus the crazy (ie. Feet)

Still no screenies to show yet, however I'm currently doing textures, and I've just modeled a Coach/Carriage for The Quill Circus :D And I modeled the Lighthouse too.

Would still like to see those concepts asap!

Alright. My own concepts for the city of Orsinium will be uploaded either tonight or tomorrow.

In the meantime, I would like to present the art and photos I've been using for inspiration. Comments/criticism welcome.

Two photos (from different angles) in the futurist art style. Orsinium is said to be home to giant iron statues of Trinimac, Gortwog and other heroes of the orc people, and it occurred to me that this asymmetrical, harsh-lined style fits their mentality.

http://images.encarta.msn.com/xrefmedia/...38/T038636A.jpg
http://www.leninimports.com/umberto_boccioni_sculpture_1.jpg

A south american cathedral. The general shape and dramatic design were the inspiration for my design of the Temple of Trinimac (this will be the only symmetrical, smooth-edged building in the city, which will make it look very out of place).

http://hayleygilchrist.files.wordpress.c...04/catedral.jpg

The Oriental Pearl Tower. Something like how I visualised the Great Tower of Orsinium (see the Orsinium city thread for more information) - only made of iron and half-built.

http://hayleygilchrist.files.wordpress.c...lpearltower.jpg

Housing: wealthy and powerful Orc clans will live in large communal fortress-houses made from large sheets of iron bolted together (in a manner similar to this sculpture):

http://www.odu.edu/al/arted/studentportf...%20futurism.jpg

The majority of Orcs will live in shacks, of a similar design to the concepts already posted in the general visual development thread. However, they will be stacked on top of each other, with staircases running between them, so that the overall effect looks like this:

http://hyperexperience.com/wp-content/up...0/habitat67.jpg
http://hayleygilchrist.files.wordpress.c...12x11-1_2_l.jpg

Orsinium's industrial section (my designs will be much more asymmetrical and rough in appearance, but will retain the sharp lines and unusual shapes):

The first two pieces of concept art!

First, I'm really sorry about the huge image files. I don't have a scanner so I had to take a photo using a digital camera, and I don't have a clue how to reduce the resolution. So sorry if they take a long time to load.

Second, I realise that these concepts probably wouldn't be practical to put into the game "as is" - they are very complicated and probably would end up being very high poly. But that's why they are called concepts I guess - its the job of the modeler to turn designs into things that will work in the game.

This is one of the first block forts of orsinium - made out of iron sheets, with some similarities to the TES2 version of Gortwog's palace.

http://img90.imageshack.us/my.php?image=greattowersp6.jpg

The Great Tower of Orsinium. Gortwog has been working on this for years in my invented backstory for the city. He claims it is a great public monument to the glory of orc civilisation - but does it house something more sinister? The player will spend their time in the city finding out the answer.
